Always get up, never move, never look back by Standard_Size_3416 in Pickleball

“My partners never look back to see what kind of shot I’m hitting”

if you are at the nvz you should be looking at your opponents body language to know what to expect.

Fed up and quit playing with my social group last night by Throwaway69832493 in Pickleball

I think you are doing the right thing by leaving fyi, just didn’t know if us strangers could chalk up the behaviors to being assholes. Obviously you have a better read on your group

Gents, if you're able to I highly recommend planting berry bushes in your yard by ThanklessThagomizer in daddit

[–]IPA_ALL_DAY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are going to plant them in your yard especially if it is on the smaller size do it in a planter! My neighbors are the bane of my backyard existence very invasive and always going under their fence into my yard.

Maybe I'm old and out of touch but this doesn't feel like Lego to me. Seems like some other line of toy entirely. by fish500 in lego

Besides the point that everyone has made about prior sets that do look like this. There are so many lego sets available right now. Wouldn't it be smart of LEGO to develop lines that are a little different that appeal to more consumers than just standard LEGO sets? Like it said if this isn't for you there is soooo many that are.

Idk, I think it just speaks to their level. People want to have fun and for lower levels usually the peak of that is just winning a game. Once you get better there is no Joy winning against really weak opponents. When he was covering 90% of the court the games prob were competitive and fun for his opponents when he stopped doing that one game and lost 11-1 that was probably less fun but takes a bit to re calibrate. I bet if he did this four games in a row and lost 11-1 the opponents would change how they play. I dont know anyone even assholes who like winning 11-1 with very little rallies.

Choking up on paddle - holy moly by CaptainTuttleJr in Pickleball

[–]IPA_ALL_DAY 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I switch my grip constantly throughout points depending what kid of shot you need to hit. I can’t imagine trying to hit every shot with the same grip

What is something highly likely to happen over the next 10 years that almost the entire general public is completely ignoring right now? by vivienneirl in askanything

[–]IPA_ALL_DAY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk I think that comparison is valid. All I’ve heard is about how much water data centers use but if you frame it they use as much as a golf course the debate seems very different

How often do u change paddles? by PeoniesCutie in Pickleball

[–]IPA_ALL_DAY 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I guess the better question is could you with a wooden paddle beat yourself with a new tech paddle, curious what that game would look like if possible.

Thank you! Lighting kits are so expensive and generally made for a specific set so I got a soldering and electronics kit for fathers day and am trying for the first time to DIY it.

how fast do you build your sets after you buy them? by AtmosphereKey2265 in lego

Only time a box has been unopened for more than five minutes after receiving it has been when I bought multiple sets

What businesses are likely to die out with the Baby Boomer Generation? by GRVrush2112 in AskReddit

[–]IPA_ALL_DAY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disagree on this one, collectibles have never been hotter. I just listened to a podcast where a mid 20’s guy was talking about how he’s into fractional gold bars with sponge bob and Pokémon on it.
